gamm.setup

This is an internal function of package <code>mgcv</code>. It is called 
by <code>gamm</code> to set up a generalized additive mixed model in a form suitable for fitting by calls to 
<code>glmmPQL</code> from the <code>MASS</code> library or <code>lme</code> from the <code>nlme</code> library. The main task is the representation of the smooth terms as random effects.

             Includes an implementation (not a clone) of gam().
